John, it certainly is! I didn't look too closely but won boks, etc are heavy. Funny that there's an empty truck next door!

They'll need to go scavenging for a bit more protein at some point. They'd be happy that it's brown rice at this stage - the bran has good protein.

John, yes, a nasty, nasty system. I say this as I'm sitting back in HCM with a tea and an iced coffee and time to read some comments and scratch at neglected footrot.
